Update: You can find some images here.
Level-5 showed the debut trailer for Youkai Watch at their “Vision” conference a short while ago. Unfortunately, we don’t know much about the title. Platform(s) and a release date have yet to be announced.
Furthermore, Level-5 has yet to share actual gameplay details. The only piece of information we have is that this new IP will involve not only a game, but also an anime and manga.
Will Youkai Watch come to a Nintendo platform? We’ll have to wait and see…

Every so often, GameTrailers TV focuses on Nintendo for a full episode. This year’s show will air on October 27 and will feature Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime. GTTV promises “exclusive new footage and details on the forthcoming Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword for the Nintendo Wii.”
Additionally, Fils-Aime will chat about Nintendo’s holiday lineup for Wii and 3DS.
Reggie usually has some interesting things to say, so that, along with the new Skyward Sword footage, means that Nintendo fans should tune in to GTTV in a couple of weeks.

Kojima hopes Metal Gear Solid continues after he dies, also wants to make something new
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Hideo Kojima has been involved with the Metal Gear Solid franchise for over two decades. He’s managed to sneak in development on some other IPs such as Zone of the Enders, but he always finds himself coming back to Metal Gear.
In some ways he doesn’t mind this, though Kojima has also expressed interest in working on something new.
While Kojima was speaking at USC earlier this week, Kojima stated that he “would love to have the Metal Gear Solid series continue” after he dies and that he will continue to work on Metal Gear Solid if fans want to see new titles in the series.
“First of all, I just want to say that as long as there are fans who want Metal Gear Solid, as a producer, I will always want to still make them and I want the series to continue. So even after I die, I still would love to have the Metal Gear Solid series continue.
“But as a creator, of course, I want to do something new, and I don’t want to be limited to Metal Gear forever, right? So of course I have tried in the past. I’ve tried to hand Metal Gear off to other people within the studio and I’ve tried to raise people up so they have the ability to take over. And I think since Metal Gear Solid 3 I’ve tried this and actually did hand it off and have other people come up with the story and come up with the game design. But for some reason it just never really works out. And, you know, I end up having to step in again to take charge and kind of fix things here and there and just get sucked back in unfortunately.”
